Become an Engineer Specializing in Computer Science

The course trains engineers who combine in-depth knowledge of the fundamentals of computer science with an openness to the systemic and societal challenges of digital technology.
Students master the technical tools of their discipline to model, develop, certify et optimiser software, information systems or intelligent applications, while integrating the dimensions of security, performance et ethical.
They also develop skills in communication, teamwork, project management and independent learning, enabling them to adapt to complex and multidisciplinary environments.

Course Objectives:

  • Train engineers capable of design efficient and secure computer systems and software.
  • Developing skills in artificial intelligence, autonomous robotics, and data science.
  • Integrate a multidisciplinary vision, including socio-ecological issues and the principles of ethics and Responsibility Law

Program

A 3-year course

The training is spread over six semesters, with academic semesters combined with professional internships. Those in spring (S6, S8, S10) include a period of in-company training (internship). In the third year, students can choose to complete the alternating training, which allows them to work in a company while continuing their studies.

The lessons are divided into 4 areas:

  • Engineering Sciences
  • Humanities, Business and Professionalization
  • Techniques and technologies
  • Computer science
